Cao Wanru carefully looked at the crocodile surrounded by everyone. Although he was a little shocked at first, everyone soon calmed down, because this crocodile was just a second-level mutant beast. In the eyes of everyone, it really didn't exist. What a threat!
She carefully looked at the slightly slender crocodile in front of her, and suddenly made a sound of surprise!
Everyone was stunned and looked at Cao Wanru. Aya asked curiously: "Sister Wanru, do you know this crocodile? How do you know it is an alligator?"
Others were also very curious. They thought this crocodile looked a bit weird before, but after all, this creature could not have any connection with ordinary people, so no one could see why. Suddenly someone seemed to recognize its origin, Everyone suddenly became curious!
Cao Wanru did not answer directly, but carefully observed the three-meter-long crocodile on the ground, and finally nodded affirmatively: "Yes, this is an alligator! When I was a policeman, I once participated in an illegal sale. Among the wild animal cases, a batch of alligators that were smuggled to Shengyang from the south were recovered. At that time, in order to better understand the species, habits and other issues of this crocodile, I deliberately studied information about this crocodile!"
Everyone was in an uproar. They didn't expect Cao Wanru to have such an experience, but it can be explained after thinking about it. It has been a custom of Chinese people to eat game since ancient times, and many creatures have even been eaten by humans until they became extinct.
Even though the country has been vigorously cracking down on poaching and poaching of wild animals for decades, there are still people who will take risks for the sake of high profits. Every year, everyone can know through various channels how many cases of poaching and poaching have been discovered by the country. , as time goes by, everyone will become accustomed to it!
"Sister Wanru, is it an alligator? How is it different from other crocodiles?" Aya was very curious.
Zhang Yizhe stared at the big crocodile on the ground: "I remember that the alligator should be a small crocodile native to China, right? This guy is so big, it shouldn't be an alligator!"
Cao Wanru smiled at Zhang Yizhe: "The idol is right. The alligator is indeed different from the crocodiles we watch on TV. It is a small crocodile that grows in China. I don't know if you have seen that video. An aunt was washing vegetables by the water, and there was a crocodile floating in the water, floating next to it, but it did not attack humans. In the end, the aunt hit her head with an iron basin!"
Hearing what Cao Wanru said, everyone's eyes lit up, and they vaguely seemed to remember that there was indeed such an online news...
"The alligator in that news is a crocodile species unique to my country. It is two meters long and weighs 30 to 40 kilograms!"
Seeing how curious everyone was, Cao Wanru also shared some information he found at that time with everyone. Aya and Wan Yi listened very carefully!
"Unlike most foreign crocodiles, alligators are also crocodiles, but they are timid and docile by nature. They are just fierce in appearance.
If there are humans on the shore, it will just swim over and look at you cutely, and will never attack humans. It may even be more scared than you. As soon as it finds someone, it will swim away docilely.
Other crocodiles are fierce and ugly, but the alligator looks cute and cute. Except for its short legs, it is round everywhere. With its round head and round eyes, it hardly causes any harm to humans and domestic animals! "
Listening to Cao Wanru's introduction, everyone also looked at the big crocodile on the ground. It was exactly as Cao Wanru described.
The more they looked at it, the more they felt that this crocodile was not fierce at all, but rather silly, like a coquettish person. It is completely different from the ugly guy you see on TV who always launches death rolls on wildebeest and takin in the turbid river water.
"Is this thing really not going to attack people? After all, it is a crocodile after all!" Li Siyu pulled her daughter, still a little worried. After all, there are children in their team. If this thing suddenly attacks, no one can guarantee whether it can Stop its attack in time.
Cao Wanru thought for a while: "I remember that some professionals analyzed that the strength of an adult alligator can at most be equal to that of a big goose. Even the big goose can escape unscathed. Because its main food source is some small animals." Fish, shrimp and mussels.”
Suddenly, Cao Wanru seemed to think of something and couldn't help laughing. Everyone was confused?
Cao Wanru immediately explained: "To date, the only recorded incident in which a human was injured due to it was because he was frightened by the sight of it and accidentally fell off a bridge. Apart from this, no alligator has ever hurt anyone. The incident is a wild animal that does almost zero harm to humans. As long as you don’t actively attack it, basically nothing will happen.”
When everyone heard this, they all couldn't help laughing. If you didn't listen, you wouldn't know. I didn't expect that there is such a cute crocodile?
"But it's not small. Could it be that it was a mistake?" Li Siyu was still a little worried.
Jiang Yi smiled and said: "That's right. After all, it's normal to mutate. It's normal to become larger! It's rare for people like Xiao Huo to mutate and become smaller instead of bigger."
Jiang Yi said, pointing to the little fox in Zhang Yizhe's arms! Everyone also nodded. Indeed, after animals mutate, almost all of them will double in size. They have only seen a few mutated beasts that not only did not become larger, but instead became smaller, such as Aya's Zidian and Zhang Yizhe's. Xiaohuo is a special case!
Because they do not have a strong body, the ability of this type of mutant beast to survive will be very weak. This is the main reason why such mutant beasts are rarely seen in the wild. If this is the case, it would be normal for an alligator that was originally over one meter to grow to three meters!
Wan Yi watched nervously as Hua He examined his war beast, and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Hua, why is it so lazy and unwilling to move? Is it injured by the master? I have blood recovery pills here, do you want to give them to me?" How many pills does it take!”
Jiang Yi rolled his eyes, thinking that his apprenticeship was in vain. Hua He shook his head in confusion: "It is not injured, but the strange thing is that its heart beats very slowly. If I were not sure that it was alive, I would have thought that its heart would not beat."
When Wan Yi heard this, he was immediately nervous and didn't know what to do.
Cao Wanru seemed to have thought of something: "Ah, I remembered, it should be normal for its heart to beat slowly!"
Wan Yi raised his head anxiously: "Sister Wanru, tell me what you think of!"
Cao Wanru smiled: "The weather is cold now. Crocodiles are also cold-blooded animals. When the weather is cold, they will also choose to hibernate. Although alligators mainly live near the Yangtze River, they will also dig holes when the temperature is low. If you reduce exercise, your heart will slow down and will not regain its vitality until the temperature rises."
Everyone was stunned, and Aya suddenly realized: "Yes, crocodiles and snakes are both cold-blooded animals, so they are very afraid of the cold. My Zidians are too lazy to move now."
Wan Yi, who had never raised a crocodile before, was stunned for a while, but finally knew that there was nothing wrong with the big guy, so he felt relieved and happily patted the alligator's big round forehead: "Did you hear that? You are not sick, nor are you. Not injured."
The alligator's head was slightly tilted, lazily enjoying Wan Yi's touch.
"But Wanzi, why did you say it saved your life before? Also, why does it stay in the pond where we are stationed?"
Qingdou thought of what Wan Yi said before and asked curiously.
Zhang Yizhe stroked the little fox. He had always liked stuffed animals and couldn't help but be curious. Can cold-blooded animals also do things to save people?
Wan Yi scratched his head in embarrassment and looked at Jiang Yi: "Master, do you remember how we fished for mutant shrimp in the artificial lake before we moved here?"
Jiang Yi nodded, and Qingdou also nodded: "Remember, you almost had an accident at that time..."
Suddenly, Qingdou stopped talking and looked at Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi said, "I went to rescue you and found you already lying on the shore. Is that that time?"
Haruto also clapped his hands: "I remember, Wanzi said at that time that the one who rescued him ashore was a mutated beast, and he thought it was a crocodile, but we didn't believe it at the time!
I didn’t expect that it was actually a crocodile. Oh my God, this is so bizarre. "No one else knew about this. When they heard Haruto's description, they couldn't help but marvel, and their eyes looked at the big crocodile with a hint of softness.
Li Siyu also let go of her daughter and no longer restricted her from getting close to the crocodiles on the ground.
Wan Yi nodded vigorously: "Yes, it was the one who rescued me from the bottom of the water."
"Then how did it come to the station? Could it be that you secretly hid it in? If you want, you can tell us directly!" Guo Hanxue noticed the most critical point.
Wan Yi hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "No, I didn't bring it in. One day, when I went to the pond to catch shrimps, I happened to see it basking in the sun on the shore. This pond was originally its home. , after we moved here, we erected a wall, and as a result, it was trapped here and could not swim along the artificial canal."
Jiang Yi touched his nose in embarrassment. Everyone had understood that for everyone's safety, the boss built a wall to surround the camp overnight. If the alligator happened to be near the spring at that time, it would really be possible for him to be trapped here. .
The alligator is timid by nature. Whenever people or animals approach the pond, it will hide under the water. With its own mutated ability, it has not been discovered until now! On the contrary, he and Wan Yi became friends because of the fate of saving people.
Jiang Yi suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Wan Yi had taken all the affairs of the pond on himself recently and would run to the pond whenever he had nothing to do. It turns out that's why...
"Well, it doesn't need to be hidden anymore. It doesn't matter if it wants to stay in the pond or in the animal forest! Since you have signed a contract with it, you must treat it well!" Jiang Yi clapped his hands. , told Wan Yi.
Wan Yi immediately nodded excitedly: "Thank you, Master!"
"Humph!" At this time, the crocodile also raised its head and let out two dull sounds!
Everyone was stunned, and Zhang Yizhe laughed and said, "This is the first time I have heard this crocodile's cry. Why does it sound like a pig's cry?"
Everyone laughed and agreed, but Wan Yi embarrassedly pressed the alligator's mouth...
